MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – The Georgia College
and State University men’s basketball team has been named as
a possible breakthrough team in NCAA Division II by the 2010-11
Sporting News College Basketball Preview.

“I never put any stock in preseason info,” said head
coach Terry Sellers. “I am a little surprised
that we are mentioned in this list because of all of the personnel
we lost after last season. It’s a positive that our program
has been consistent and this poll is more of a testament of what
are guys have done over the last few years.”

Georgia College is one of three Peach Belt Conference (PBC)
basketball teams announced as possible breakthroughs along with USC
Aiken and the University of Montevallo by NCAA basketball guru
Chuck Mistovich in the 2010-11 Sporting News College
Basketball Preview.

The Bobcats are no strangers to success winning the west
division championship last season with a record of 22-6, 15-2 in
the PBC.

The Georgia College Department of Athletics, back-to-back
winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 10 varsity athletic
programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program,
Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the
student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in
post-season competition as well as documented academic success and
community-service involvement. Sign up at www.twitter.com/GCSUBobcats
